Seventeen years ago, my family and I followed a dream — restoring a château in the Loire Valley and making it our own.
It wasn’t about profit. It was about breathing life back into history, one stone at a time. Along the way, we learned everything the hard way — from restoration realities to French paperwork and now I’m sharing those lessons to help others start their own journey.
These guides aren’t glossy brochures. They’re real, honest, and made to support anyone dreaming of buying in France — with eyes wide open.
